 ==Description==
 This kit is used to crush ice into liquids and/or gases. The Ice Crusher has two outputs at the back. The top port can be connected to [[Pipes]] (yellow) and the lower port can be connected to [[Kit (Liquid Pipe)|Liquid Pipe]] (blue) to extract the products. The top pipe output is for Gas, and the lower pipe output is for Liquids. Different kinds of Ice can be crushed:
-:[[Ice (Water)]] produces liquid Water and [[Nitrogen]] gas (80% water, 20% nitrogen)
+:[[Ice (Water)]] produces liquid [[Water]] and [[Nitrogen]] gas (20 mols Water, 5 mols Nitrogen)
-:[[Ice (Oxite)]] produces [[Oxygen]] and [[Nitrogen]] gas (90% Oxygen, 10% nitrogen)
+:[[Ice (Oxite)]] produces [[Oxygen]] and [[Nitrogen]] gas (22.5 mols Oxygen, 2.5 mols Nitrogen)
-:[[Ice (Volatiles)]] produces [[Hydrogen]] gas (100% Hydrogen)
+:[[Ice (Volatiles)]] produces [[Methane]] and [[Hydrogen]] gas (20 mols Methane, 2 mols Hydrogen)
-:[[Ice (Nitrice)]] produces [[Nitrogen]] and [[Nitrous_Oxide]] gas (90% Nitrogen, 10% Nitrous Oxide)
+:[[Ice (Nitrice)]] produces [[Nitrogen]] and [[Nitrous_Oxide]] gas (22.5 mols Nitrogen, 2.5 mols Nitrous Oxide)

 * Outputs gas at a maximum rate of 9.231 MPa per tick into a single pipe segment (exactly 20 MPa into 6 pipe segments every 13 ticks), stopping once its internal pressure equals the pressure of the output port.  This drops its internal pressure by 0.4615 MPa per tick.
 * Can generate gas from crushing ice substantially faster than its maximum gas output rate, at a rate of approximately 5 MPa to its internal capacity per tick spent crushing ice.
-* Changing the 'Setting' Value (represented in kelvin) with IC/Logic circuits can dramatically speed up crushing times.

 The ice crusher can be used to get drinkable water early on, by connecting it to a [[Water Bottle Filler]] using [[Kit (Liquid Pipe)|Liquid Pipe]] and piping the [[Nitrogen]] out with a pump or an [[Active Vent]] to avoid blocking the ice crusher. Note however that if done inside, this could lead to pressure accumulating over time, which could be dangerous if not eventually upgraded to a more robust gas handling system.
